Renesas Electronics RC22112A FemtoClock™ Clock Generator

Renesas Electronics RC22112A FemtoClock™ Clock Generator is a fully integrated, low-power, high-performance clock generator. This generator features PCIe Gen 1-6 CC, SRIS, SRNS support, and less than 100fs-RMS low jitter. The RC22112A generator supports 1MHz I2C, 400kHz SMBus, or 50MHz SPI serial port, up to six fractional output dividers, and 12 integer output dividers. This clock generator provides reference clocks for high-speed serial links up to 28Gbps Ethernet in fabric cards in data center equipment. Typical applications include switches/routers, clock generation for 10Gbps/25Gbps/40Gbps/100Gbps/200Gbps/400Gbps Ethernet PHYs in switch fabric cards, medical imaging, and professional audio and video.
